Nano/Bio
The Nano/Bio Group focuses on developing technologies to harness nano- and micron-scale phenomena both in living and non-living systems. Our work involves research in precise measurement, manipulation, and control technologies for biological systems ranging from biomolecules to cells and tissues, as well as research in energy, sensor, and display devices based on the fabrication of micro/nano structures.
Multiscale Biomedical Engineering Lab.
Prof. Jeon, Noo Li
Microfluidic organ-on-chip technologies are used to develop biomimetic tissue and cell culture testing platforms that push the boundaries between in vitro and in vivo. It is the aim of organ on chip technologies to reduce the need for animal and human drug testing by developing cost effective and ethically superior human organ models, and to forge the tools of future research.
Laboratory for living systems engineering
Prof. Shin, Yongdae
We aim to understand how living systems are organized from molecules to cells and tissues and how high-order functions emerge from interactions between individual components. In doing so, we employ diverse quantitative techniques to probe mechanics and dynamics of living systems, and analyze them by applying principles of soft matter physics and mechanics. Building on this knowledge, the long-term goal of our lab is to design and produce biological systems that can perform desired functions in diverse engineering applications.
